The new Bib Fortuna, Han Solo and Princess Leia look great!!! Finally, after about 9 years, resculpts of these characters!!

Bib Fortuna - simply wow... so much better looking than the old version... I am so glad they are finally remaking him... much better than my customizing attempt from a few years back... I can finally convert this version I made into a random Twi'lek background character or make a few changes for him to be a TPM version -

Han Solo - looks great too, and a definite needed new addition to our weak assortment of ROTJ Han Solo... customizing potential with this one!

Princess Leia - can't wait to see with the helmet removed... her helmet seems big, but I think it was kind of big on her in the movie too...

Overall, this Wookiee is pleased with what he sees in these new OT figures... yipeeee! Amazing what Hasbro can do now compared to how bad the old POTF2 versions of these figures look by today's standards.

I know they're not the best comparison pics, bu the new version looks thicker, and less broad. Also, if you look at the left side where the panels are, on the POTF2 version, there is a pretty big space between the top panel and the actual top of the carbon block, but on the new one, the space seems a lot smaller.

I'm pretty happy with today's news, and I think the figures look good. Boussh and Bib are years overdue. I wonder what the Hoth figures will be (resculpt Snowtrooper, please), and what kind of balance there will be between the OT and PT going forward.

The figureare are looking like improvements over their earlier couterparts, but Boush's helmet does look a bit too big at the moment. What worries me is that we're getting 3 repacks as well. I hope they at least repaint the Barada to match the one on Luke and Han's Skiff.

I'm stoked for the boussh fig for the most part. Lots of articulation it looks like and decent sculpting, but what's up with that HUGE helmet? I know, it's removable, obviously; but does anyone else but me think that maybe just switchable ball jointed heads would work just as well instead of having all these removable helmet figures to make the detail a little crisper/the protortions a little more in scale?
